MISCIEL ANEOVS.
Tna A.MALOAMATION OF LANOVAGFES.—TbOre is a groW-
Ing tendency in this age to appropriate the most ex
pressive words of Other languages, and niter it while to
incorporate them Into our own: thus the word Cephalic,
which is from thO Creek, signifying "tor the bead," is
now becoming popularized in connection with Mr.
.51:raiding s great.headache remedy, but it will soon be
used in a more general way. and the word Cephalic
Wild become as common as Electrotype and many oth
ers whose distinction as foreign words has been worn
away by common usage until they seem "native and to
the manor born."
'ardly Realized
Hi 'ad 'orrible 'oadache this bafternoon, hand I step•
pod into the hapothecaries hand says hi to the man,
Can you hease me of ad 'eadache ?" "Does it hada)
'art ," tatlys "Ilexceedingly," says hi, hand upon
that 'e gave me a Cephalic Pill, hand 'pan me 'onor It
cured use so quick that I 'ardly realized I 'ad 'ad an
'eadache.
AINF" HEADACHE is the favorite sign by which nature
makes known any deviation .whatever from the natu
ral state of the brain, and viewed in this llgbt it may
be looked on as a safeguard intended to give notice of
disease which might otherwise escape attentien„.till too
late to be remedied; and its indications should never be
neglected. Headaches may be classified under two
names, viz; Symptomatic and Idiopathic. SYlue.M.
atie Headache is exceedingly common and Is the pre
cursor of a great variety of diseases, among which are
Apoplexy, Gout. Rheumatism and all febrile diseases.—
In its nervous form it is sympathetic of disease of.thc
stomach constituting sick headache, of hepatic disease
constituting bilious headache, of worms constipation
and other disorders of th... bowels, as well as renal and
uterine affecgons. Diseases of the heart are very fee
quently attAtied withAleadaohetrpAnmaristirtulpiettid.
ra are also affections which frequently occasion head
ache. Idiopathic Headache- is also verycounnon, being
usually, distinguished by the name of nervous headache,
sometimes coming on suddenly in a state of apparently
sound 'health andprosprating at once the mental and
physical energies, and in other instances it comes on
slowly, heralded by depression of spirits or acerbity 'of
temper. In most instances the pain is in the front of
the head, over one or both eyes, and sometimes provok
ing vomiting; under this class may also be named /Ven
n:4la. .
. For the treatment of either class of Headache the
Cephalie Pills have been found a sure and tutfe
,remeily„
relieving the most smite pains iwa few minutes, and by
its subtle power eradicating the diseases of which Head
'ache is the unerring index.
BRIIAEL-31 lOUS want yen to send her a boa of
Cephalic Glue, no, a bottle of Prepared 1411'4—but I'm
thinking that's just it neither; but perhaps yell be
afther knowing what it is. Ye seeehe's nigh dead and
gone with the Sick headache, and wants sonic more of
that same as relaived her before. "
Druggist.--You must mean Spalding's Cephalic Pills.
Bridget.—Oth I sure now end you've sed it, here's the
quartber and gir me the Pills and dont be all day ahem
It either.
Constipation or Costiveness.
No one of the "many ills flesh is heir to" is so preva
lent. so little understood, and se' much neglected as
Costiveness. Often originating in careless, or sedentary
habits; it is regarded as a slight disorder of too little
consequence to excite anxiety, while in reality it is the
precursor and companion of many of the mast &Wand
dangerous diseases, em unless early eradießAd It will
bring tad sufferer to an untimely grave. Among the
lighter evils of which costiveness is the usual attend
ant, are Ifeadnehe, Colic, Rheumatism, Foul Breath,
Piles and others of like nature, while a long train of
frightful diseases such as Malignant Fevers, Abeesses,
Dysentary, Diarrhoea, Dyspepsia, Apoplexy, Epilepsy,
Paralysis, Hysteria, Ilypachondriasis, Melancholy and
Insanity, first indicate their presence in the system by
this alarming symptom. Not unfrequently the diseases
named originate in Constipation, but take on' an inde
pendent existence unless the cause is eradicated in au
early stage. From all these considerathins it follows
that the disorder should receive immediate attention
whenever it occurs. and no person should neglect to get
a box of Cephalic Pills on the first appearance of the
complaint, as their timely use will expel the insidious
approaches of disease and destroy this dangerous foe to
human life.
A Beal Blessing
PUYSlClAN,—Well.lfra..Tones. how is that headache?
MRS. JONES, Gone! Doctor, all gone! the pill you
sent cured me in itt , t twenty minutes. and I wish you
would send morel so that I can have them handy.
PHYSICIA:f.—You can get them at any Druggists
Call for Cephalic Pills, I flail they never fail, and I re
commend them in all eases of headache.
MRS. shall semi for a box directly, and
shall tell aft my suffering frienils. for they are a real
blessing.
TWENTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS SATED.—Mr.
Spalding has sold two millions of bottles of his cele
brated Prepared Glue and it is estimated that each bot
tle Haves at least ten dollars worth of broken furniture,
thus making an aggregate of twenty millions of dollars
reclaimed from total loss by this raluable invention.—
Having made his Glue a household word, he now pro
poses to do the world still greater service by curing nll
the aching heads with his Cephalic Pills, end if they
are d$ good as his Glue, 'Headaches will soon vanish
away like snow in July.
ifa- 0 1 1E1: EXCITEMENT, and the mental cure and
anxiety Incident to close attention to bnsiness or study,
are among tbo numerous causes of Nervous Headache.
The disordered state of mind and body incident to this
distressing complaint is a fetal blow to all energy and
ambition. Sufferers by this ilisorder can always obtain
speedy relief from those distressing attacks by nsingone
of the Cephalic Pills whenever the symptoms appear.—
It quiets the overtasked brain, and soothes the strained
and Jarring nerves, and relaxes the tension of the stem.
ach which always aceompanies and aggravates the dis
ordered condition of the brain.
FACT WOUTII KNOWlNG.—Spalding's CepbsAic
Dills are a certain curs for Sick headache, Bilious
Headache, Nervous-Headache, Costiveness and Dermal
Debility.
GREAT DISCOVEIIY.--Among the most Important
of all the great medical "discoveries of this age may be
conshlered the system of vaccination for protection
from Small Pox, the Cephalic 1411 for relief of Head
eche, and the use of Quinine for the prevention of Fo
yers, either of which is a sure Npecific, whose benefits
will be experienced: by suffering humanity long after
their discoverers ere forgotten.
.
MR' DID you ever have the Sick Headache? Do you
remember the throbbing temples, the fevered brow, the
loathing and disgust at the sight of food. HOW totally
unfit you were for pleasure, conversation or study.—
One of the Cephalic Pills would have relieved you from
all the suffering which you then experienced. For this
and other purposes you should always have a box of
them on hand to use. as ocenstOn rognires.

THE UNWELCOME MONITOR.
Some years ago" . I was ap,pointed
agent fir an extensive emu in the city
of New York, and vas obliged by the
duties of my office to travel frequent
ly in the Western States. In those
days, the means. of communication
between differenk parts of the coun
try were much 'leSs 'e sten ded than at
present, and in consequerre I very of
ten performed 'Ong journeys on horse
back, concealing commonly large
sums of money, about my person: 7 —
For the better security of life and
property, which wete not seldom en.
dangered in the less populous diStrietp,
I invariably made it, my practiee to
go armed, and being naturally .of ,a
fearless turn, rather enjoyed Than otherwise the sense of danger 'fror
which I was never wholly free.

although subsequently explained. in
part, haVe always been in 'a great
measure mysteriously inexplicable.—
No system of psychology has everyet
succeeded in analyzing those occult
operations of the mind, by which the
imagination is determined to repre
sent on its canvass scenes which are
yet enveloped in the impenetrable
darkness of futurity. But. to my
story.
The occasion of my business in the
year 183— rendered it necessary for
me to travcrsealone the Western part
of the State of Ohio, and I made the
journey, as usual, on horseback. This
State, now one of the most lustrous
stars in the federal constellation, was
- at that time eclipsed in glory by ma
ny- a sister luminary which has since
grown dim beside it. The greater
part of my route lay through
. a thin
ly.peopled region, in which the houses
were "like angels' visits, few and -far
between," and in. which I was fro
quently obliged to put up with accom
modations of the very plainest de
scription. _One wet, raw, windy day
in October I had ridden further than
,common on a wretched road, which
had greatly taxed the powers of my
willing horse, and as the afternoon
wore away, and still no sign of a house
appeared, I began to feel anxious no
less on his account than my own.—
Just before evening closed in, howev
er, I was overjoyed by the distant
prospect of a house, rudely built in
deed, but as weleOme to my eyes as
the low-lying shores of Guanhani to
the strained visions of Columbus and
Lis comrades.
• Patting the neck of my jaded steed
and speaking encouraging words to
him, I pushed on to the haven which
promised us rest after the toil and
weariness' of the day's exertions.—
Through the unenrtained windows of
the lower story streamed out into the
increasing darkness a cheerful light,
whose wavering brightnesS indicated
an open fire-place. As I drew near
the house I could -partially discern
through the gloom the' shapes
of irrerrular sheds and out-buildings
attached to the main structure; but I
only cursorily glanced at these, being
more intent on reaching the inside
than scrutinizing:the outside of the
edifice. The sound of my horse's
hoofs attracted the inmates and a man
issued from one Of the outbuildings,
bearing a dark lantern, Which entire
ly concealed his own figure, while it
lilainly revealed mine.
"Cim you take care of my horse,
and give nie food and lodgings for the
night ?" I inquired. "We are both
exhausted, and can hardly go further
hefty° to-morrow."
"Yes," was the laconic answer.
•I dismounted and followed the man
as he led My horse into the barn, and
having see.o him well provided for,ive,
went without an additional- syllable
into-the house. My companion all
the while, whether accidentally or
designedly, kept the bright side'of the
lantern constantly turned towards me,
and it was notantil we entered the
apartment containing the fire that I
could fairly; obtain it sight of him I
involuntarily turned my gaze updn
him before even glancing tithe room
into Which I now entered, impelled . hy
an irresistible curiosity for which 'I
was at a loss to account, lie was a
man of rather more than the average
stature, with a "breadth across the
shoulders I have never but once seen
equalled; indeed so athletic was his
appearance that I was but a babe in
comparison of physical strength, al
though at least two inches his Superi
or in stature.
His features Were not ill-shaped; if
it had'not been fora low forehead he
might have - been called almost good
looking; his coMplexion, however,
was dark, and as profusion Of bushy
beard rendered the expression of his
mouth hardly visible. I was just
turning my eyes from his thee to ob
serve the aspect of my new quarters,
when for a second his glance met
mine; it was instantaneously averted,
but a thrill of horror, loathing and
disday shot through my frame like
an agonizing electrical shock. It was a
rather small black eye (the other be
ing sightless and nearly, shut) which
bad thus powerfully etreeted me; in
its horrible glitter seemed to lurk the
concentrated quintessence of devilish
ma li gn ity. No words can describe
the convulsive recoil with which I
shrank from that glimpse into the
depth, of his soul; it was as, if the
earth had yawned beneath any fest,
.
and in the blackness of the gloomy
abyss I had half descried the -. deeper
blackness, vast and pi r d , e4cd, of the
wince of evil,
With an immense effort cof 17j0)
however shook off the inftueooo of
the man, and directed my attention
to the objects that surrounded me.—
The room was large,And was roughly
plastered, although dingy and dirty.
At one end was a rude -attempt at a
bar formed mit of unplaned boards,
and behind this sat a woman of about
thirty, with a wild expression of
'despair on ;her face—not impulsive
and ungoi;ernable, hut graven in sharp
lines on every feature, as if it
...Were

room was of the rud
'ClA kind; iionsiSting 2of a few chairs
and a table, on which lay a large jack
kbife, plug tobacco ;
_one tallow candle stood near by with
a long- smoky wick.
'took" a- chair and sat down by-the
fire and asked it' they could give me
any supper. The woman arose, and
without saying a word set on the ta
ble from behind the bar a half-eaten
!ep. of ham, a loaf of bread and ajug
of milk, and then resumed her seat
in silence. My conductor sat down
near the fire, with his face half turn
ed away from me, and lighting a pipe,
pulled away, likewise in silence. My
nerves are none of the most suscep
tible, but by this time the - gloom of
the party had thoroughly infected me,
and my feelings were not to be -envi
ed, as i heartily wished the morrow
were come. The one eyed man rose
at last and \Vent to the bar.
• 'Well ?' said the woman coldly.
Brandy,' was the reply.
'You've had enough tilready,' she
retorted bitterly.
'You lie,' he answered with a fierce
oath. 'l've got to stick the bog ear
ly in the morning, and I want some
more.
'You had rather stick a hog than
kill a chicken any day,' exclaimed the
woman passionately. 'I hate, you,
you brute.'
'You do, do you ?' sneered he.—
"Give me the bottle, or I'll break it
over your head.'
'Take it yourself,' groaned she,.
leaving the bar. wish you were
dead, and me, too."
The man took the bottle and drank
a long draught from it, casting at the
same time a. menacing look at the wo
man, and shaking his head at her
threateningly. The woman shudder
ed and covered her face with her
hands. I could not stand it nay long
er, and abruptly asked to be shown
my chamber.
The man, taking up the candle, mo
tioned me to follow him, when the
dog, which had been quiet before,
evinced signs of great uneasinesss,
and after trying to arrest my notice
by a series of hybrid noises, half way
between a bark and a whine, seized
hold of my pantaloons and held me
fast.
'Curse the dog,' muttered the man
with as awful oath, under his breath,
and adding, 'don't mind him,' he dealt
the poor animal such a kick with his
heavy boot as sent him flying across
the room With a yelp of pain.
Without further delay he conduc
ted, me,up a narrow flight of stairs
into a room containing a tolerably
descent bed, awash-stand, table and
a couple of chairs. Setting the can
dle down, lie left the room and Went
down stairs. No sooner had the door
closed behind him than I noiselessly
bolted it, and plaeed all the available
furniture in the room against it, Which
operation considerably alleviated the
uneasiness of. my mind. As I turned
towards the table to examine My piS
tols, I was stiirtled at seeing, in -a
cheap looking:glasi which rested
against the wall, the reflection of the
end of my money belt, just visible be
tween my waistcoat and-pantaloons.
I commonly , wore this next my body,
hut on this.morning.l had accidentally
forgotten it:until-nearly dressed, and
had -therefore strapped it around me
hastily, as I had little time to. spare.
I recollected with no small disquie
tude the opportunity of observing
this which bad been afforded by the
dark lantern; and the enigmatical re
mark of the woman,,
the . diabolical
:look of my host and the suspicious be
havipr of the dog, simultaneously _re
curred to my mind, and contributed
greatly to increase this, ,disquietude.
My first impulse was
.not .to go to bed
at all; but my second was.toupostro.

I them,struck one of them. What was
j my joy to see, standing on the wood-
I en mantle-piece,a Second candle, half
burned, but still able to give light for
a bouple of hours at least ! This was
speedily kindled, and then, turning
towards the dog, I approached the
bed. The animal seemed to have no
ill•natured designs, but as I drew
nearer, turned his nose upward and
gave a low growl, and finding that I
did not heed his pantomime, but
stretched out my hands to seize him,
he repeated the action, and took eve
ry possible means to direct my atten
tion to the ceiling. Without under
standing his desire at the time, I in•
voluntarily glanced upward, and con
ceive my horror at seeing directly
over the head of my bed the faint
outlines of a large trap door.
- MN frozen blood had hardly begun
to tingle along my veins once more,
when may eyes, firmly riveted on this
mysterious object, plainly perceived
it tremble and commence slowly to
open. The dog observed this like
wise, and uttering a loud growl,
sprung from the bed and out of the
still open window. The door, never
theless, ascended gradually, and just
as a furious gust of wind swept by
and with one of its eddies extinguish
ed the candle, a large, heavy some
thine fell with a crash upon the bed.
With a gasp and a cry of suffocation
I started, and openir '' r ray eyes dis
covered I had been dreaming; and
the sense of bewilderment accompa
nying my waking did not prevent a
feeling of intense relief.
At first I could not recollect where
I was, and fancied I must beat home;
but a few seconds sufficed to dispel
the illusion. C9.sting my eyes around
in an effort to indentity myself Arid
ascertain my position, I saw the can
dle on the table flaring up now and
then in a desperate struggle for exis
tence. Hastily Glancing at the man r.
-
tel, I saw another candle, half burned,
which 1 had noticed when I went to
bed. I NN'illi now thoroughly aroused,
and with foreboding apprehensions
looked up at the ceiling, and 0, heav
en, in the dimness of the light I saw
the regular figure of a rectangle tra
ced upon the' plastering directly above
me. Every muscle of my whole body
was paralyzed by this discovery, and
a weight,. seemed to lie with crushing i
force upon my chest; and with aspir- l
it now completely overcome with su-
perstitious terror, I lay attempting,
to summon sufficient resolution to
arise and examine the chamber more!
closely, wheri--hark, could it be ?----1
yes—no--yes, there was unmistaka- i
bly a faint sound outside my window,
resembling the noise of a dog's claws i
against the wall. It brew more and ,
more distinct, accompanied at inter
vals
with a-low whining anti an ocea• i
sional short, sharp yelp. No sooner
had I been convinced that this was I
really the case that my self-possession
returned; I got up, put on my clothes,
took one pistol in my hand, leaving
the other under my pillow, and walk
ed resolutely to the window. -
My candle had become extinguish
ed by this time, and as 1 looked out I
into the black abyss of the night I i
saw that the clouds dashed here and ' t
there with spots of silver, were break
ing
up, and that before long the moon
would appear. I threw open thew:in-
dow, and at once, as if borne by the
gust of wind which rushed into the
apartment, in leaped the black dog
whieh seemed so mysteriously eon-
neeted with this adventure of mine.
I was now completely my own mas
ter; by a vigorous effort of the will '
I quelled the shadowy fears which be
sieged my heart, and looked out, with
straining eyes to discern, if possible,
the means by which the dog could
thus make his appearance outside a
second story window. 'A transient
moon.beam showed
,me one of the nu
morons out-buildings before mention
' ecl, at right angle with the wall of the
house, and from the eaves of this all
along the side of the house extended

—to make my dream more oxact
prophecy—he turned his nose toward
the ceiling and commenced whining
very low. I instantly seized him and
hurled him out of the window with
some little compunction at thus treat
ing my only friend in the aceursed
house, but I could make no delay.
Laying some clothes on the.bed in
the form of a man as nearly as possi
ble, and extinguishing the candle, I
retired to the farthest corner of the
room, and sitting down in one of the
chairs I had placed against the door,
with my revolver in my hand, deter
mined to await the issue of events.—
For half an hour I sat perfectly - still,
listening to every whistle and sigh of
the wind, which blew intermittently
through the window I had left open,
And straining my eyes whenever there
was a gleam of light to discern wheth
er there wasany moveme.ntin the trap
door. At last, when a momentary ray
shone in, I saw it partly open, and now
I anxiously waited in silence and dark
ness for tho next development of this
awful mystery., Presently I heard a
low creaking, as of ropes, then a tre
mendous crash, the report of a pistol,
the sound of heavy feet overhead, and
the fall of sonic dull, yielding body
outside the window. The pause which
followed these almost simultaneous
noises was broken by low groans of
pain from the ground beneath my
window and the general murmur of
a great disturbance in the inner part
of the house. I hastily re-lit the can.
die, and going to the bed found a
vast stone had been dropped upon
the pillow where my head had previ
ously lain. Suddenly remembering
the pistol I had left beneath my pil
low, with the exertion of my utmost
strength I rolled the massive stone
and found the pistol discharged.
Instantly the truth flashed across
. my mind. I rushed to the window,
and looking down saw the woman
and the man I had noticed in the
baitroom the night before, bending
with torches in their hands over the
prostrate body of my host, who was
evidently in the agonies of death.—
The ruffian had been waiting outside
the window until the accomplice had
performed his hellish work, in order
to rob my mangled.corpse of the mon
ey he knew I had in my possession ;
and the pistol being accidentally dis
charged by the fail of the stone, the
ball had pierced his brain, entering
through the evil eye which had given
me such a thrill of horror.
At the discovery of this hideous
plot and its awful retribution, my
senses threatened to desert me; but
reflecting that in such a house Icould
hardly be safe, no sooner had they
carried the dying man within, than I
clambered down outside, took my
horse from the stable and mounted
him unobserved:
As I passed the house, howeirer,
and looking back at the room I had
so recently occupied, and which had
so nearly been the scene of a far dif
fere,nt tragedy, I saw lights in the
window. The sound of my horse's
hoofs drew the attention of the man
within, who had ascended to see what
had become of me and to ascertain
the cause of his comrade's death;
and instantly leveling a rifle- at me,
he fired. As I was looking at him at
the very moment, I anticipated his
action by clapping spurs to my horse,
thereby somewhat disconcerting his
aim and in all probability saving my
own life, for the ball grazed my shoul
der, eausinff '' a scar which remains to
this day. Ten long miles had my
good horse to gallop before I reached
the nearest justice of the peace, and
returning as speedily as possible we
found our birds flown and the house
nearly burned to the ground.
No information in regard to them
could be obtained, except that they
had lived iu this habitation about
two years and had been shunned and
feared by the settlers of the neigh
boring country. The conflagration of
the house was arrested, but nothing
was discovered throwing any light
on the matter. The body of the
foiled murderer was taken, charred
and scarcely recoanilabte, from the
ashes of his dwelling, where he had
apparently been flung by his associ•
ates as the quickest mode of burying
him. Having ascertained the futility
of further investigation, at least for
the present, We rode away, am] pass•
ing through an adjacent wood, tho
dog which had played so strange a
part in this most strange drama made
his appearance suddenly on our left
and followed our horses to the village
of R—. I n gratitude for his efforts
to preserve me from destruction, I
henceforward shared my borne. with
my unwelcome monitor. •
